Always a hard worker and one to persevere in the face of sorrow and difficulties, after losing her first husband she went back to High School to graduate and then put herself through Nurses Training. Then, on April 6, 1956, Margaret married Lloyd Wall, adding his two children to her family. They resided in Carbon County and then moved to Salt Lake City in 1977. Lloyd passed away June 22, 1997 of complications with Alzheimer's Disease.
Margaret was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served her Father in Heaven's children in many capacities and for as long as she was able. Margaret and Lloyd served a Manti Temple Mission in 1976-77. In their later years, they spent much of their life as Snow Birds in Arizona, where they made many lifelong friends.
